Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2119651A2] The present application relates generally to a method and system for the processing of mail items (102) within a document processing system. More specifically, described herein is a method and system for automatically adjusting the feeding of mail items (102) based on a stack pressure for minimizing jams and improving the overall system efficiency. Stack pressure is monitored as mail items (102) are fed to a transport path (106) and mail item feeding behavior is adjusted according to the stack pressure to minimize the mail item jams.
